Kleptoplasti dan Simbiosis, Kisah Hewan yang Memanfaatkan Fotosintesis

Sebab kerusakan lingkungan dapat mengganggu. Dapat mengganggu simbiosis yang vital. Seperti antara karang dan zooxanthellae. Simbiosis ini sangatlah fundamental. Fundamental bagi kelangsungan hidup. Kelangsungan hidup dari banyak spesies.
